Overloaded Armor Bar Mod allows armor values over 20 to be displayed as different colored (configurable) icons depending on how many times you fill the bar. Because the vanilla armor bar doesn’t accurately show “better than diamond” level armor, as it simply maxes out when it is full.

Frequently asked questions

How do I change the colors of the armor icons?
Open the mod's config file and edit the color values assigned to each armor bar tier, then restart the game or reload the config. Each time the bar fills past vanilla max, the next tier uses its own configurable color.
Why does my armor bar stop changing color after a certain point?
Without AttributeFix installed, vanilla caps armor at a hard limit, so the bar can't display values beyond roughly one and a half times diamond. Install AttributeFix to remove that cap and let the bar wrap further.
How do I make the armor bar show when I'm not wearing any armor?
Enable the 'show empty armor bar' option in the config. This keeps the bar visible even with no armor equipped so you always know where it sits on your HUD.
How do I hide the empty armor icons?
Turn on the 'hide empty icons' setting in the config. Only filled armor points will render instead of showing faded empty slots.
